Visit the Wallowas! One of Oregon's 7 Wonders

Why not leave the fast pace and fenced-in views of urban living and trade it all in for the beauty of the Wallowas in the winter! The scatter of golden Tamaracks across the back country and the feel of the crisp, cool air lets us know the season is changing. The look and feel in Wallowa County will once again become wild and adventurous.

Our wilderness backdrop is perfect for snow shoeing. For the more spirited Nordic skiers or snow mobile enthusiasts, hit the mountains of the Wallowas and the Salt Creek Sno-Park. This is where you’ll find the solitude and adventure every winter sportsperson craves. Be sure to get January 18-21st on your 2018 calendar for the Eagle Cap Extreme Sled Dog Race. This is Oregon’s only Iditarod and Yukon Quest Qualifier!

At the end of a day return to your cabin for a quiet retreat and relax in front of a warm and crackling fire with that special someone, or that group of fun-loving friends you enjoyed as you were skiing the backcountry. When you are ready for a taste of the Wallowas head downtown Joseph for coffee shops, galleries, pubs, and restaurants.

Mark these dates on your calendar for the holidays! Jingle through Joseph Oregon Block Party December 1st with a Christmas Bazaar December 1-2; and the Enterprise Winterfest Parade the most beautiful winter parade in Eastern Oregon December 8-9th. Go ahead and have an unforgettable Christmas Season in the Wallowas!
